Canal Road Film Centre // Exhibition

Canal Road Film Centre is a stalwart of the inner west’s powerful cultural production story. Home to film and TV production specialists – from bespoke wig makers to unit catering, grips, gaffers, model makers, special effects and the Bell Shakespeare Company – it has been in operation for over 22 years and is a precious resource in a globally competitive Sydney.

“Canal Rd Film Centre sits on a sliver of industrial space in Sydney’s inner suburbs… Aquaman, Alien, Hacksaw Ridge, The Great Gatsby, AustraliaPirates of Caribbean, The Hobbit, King KongThe Water Diviner and Mao’s Last Dancer, all owe something to the talents of its tenants”

Linda Morris, Sydney Morning Herald

So it comes as no surprise that an exhibition of this Aladdin’s Cave’s treasures is big news. Come for a sneaky peek behind the scenes: featuring film clips, props and costumes, breathe in the greasepaint, tap dance through an era and learn more about the significance of this iconic space and why it is vitally important to the cultural capital of the city.
